How to check network usage with Task Manager in Windows 10?
Internet service providers have been working hard to increase their network speeds to attract customers to use faster data plans.
But sometimes these faster plans come with limitations-dangerous metering of Internet connections, which imposes limits on the amount of data you can send and receive.
If you find yourself in such an unfortunate situation, it will be critical for you to monitor your network data usage regularly. Thankfully, Windows 10 includes tools to monitor network usage to prevent you from going over your data cap.
How to check network usage with Task Manager
- Right-click the taskbar, and click Task Manager.
- If you see the smaller version of the Task Manager, click the More details button on the bottom left corner.
- Click the App history tab.
You’ll see the date since Windows 10 began monitoring the data usage on your apps. You can also click the Delete usage history link to reset the data usage counter, but remember that it’ll also reset automatically every 30 days.
